I eat sugar free hard candy all the time. Jolly Ranchers are my favorite. Just be careful because all sugar free foods/candy can have a laxative effect if you eat too many. As far as the Laffy Taffy goes I would say try a small amount and see how you feel. Honestly though, if they are your weakness (mine is Nutella and Jif --- not together) you may not even want to get started. I wish I hadn't started on my trigger foods... :(

Laxative affect is not a bad thing :D

True for some, just a warning. I was a little "confused" the first time it happened to me because I thought it was just Sugar Free Chocolate that had that effect. Now I always put that warning out there... (sorry TMI) :)

Candy is my weakness

pooh

you can have candy in moderation

that being said, candy is my weakness too - i've found out that i'm finally strong enough to say no to candy for the past 9 1/2 months and for the rest of my healthier life

I do have candy in moderation. If you check the calories on the sugarfree kind it has almost the same as the real thing so I just go for the real thing.

You have to be careful with things that are sugar free as they generally make up for the loss of flavor with fat:(

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
